Liverpool host Arsenal at Anfield on Sunday after Chelsea showdown. Liverpool welcome Premier League champions Arsenal to Anfield on Sunday following their Carabao Cup victory over Chelsea.Andoni Iraola’s side have several injury concerns, with Dominik Szoboszlai, Florian Wirtz and Victor Munoz among those who have struggled with fitness issues recently.Jeremie Frimpong is expected to remain sidelined until after the next international break.
Iraola last said: “Jeremie Frimpong is obviously a new muscle injury and it happened, I think, in the second or third minute he was playing, difficult to predict and we will have to wait until he recovers.“But it’s going to be difficult, I think, before the [November international] break. We will try but it’s going to be difficult to have him.”Szoboszlai suffered a hamstring setback on his return from international duty, but Iraola has suggested the injury has not worsened.Iraola stated last week: “Dom is going to be out this weekend, I don’t think he is far [away from a return] but he has not trained with the group still and also considering that the other day we started him and he had to go out.“He is in a good place, he is already training outside alone and is going to train with the group, but he is not ready for this one.”Munoz could also return after missing the Chelsea and Brighton fixtures.
Giovanni Leoni remains a long-term absentee after suffering an ACL injury on his Liverpool debut last September.Liverpool are also without Conor Bradley, although the defender is closing in on a return to full training. He is still doing very well according to the plan.”Arsenal have their own concerns ahead of Sunday’s clash.
